I said, "Come on, come on
Even with my eyes sewn shut"

I see a preacher with a secret
I said, "Come on
Even with my mouth sewn up
I hid a rifle on the right
On the right bank and the left
Even with my mouth sewn up
You're tellin' me to see the truth
Even with my eyes sewn shut"
Even with my mouth sewn up

Come on
Come on
You're tellin' me to see the truth
I see fire on the water
When she said, "I see a tunnel

You're tellin' me to tell the truth
Yes, baby yes
And the market burning down
I said, "Come on
You're tellin' me to see the truth
And she smiles when she wears the iron
Come on
You're tellin' me to tell the truth
Come on
And he dare not make a sound
Curtain as a dress
I'm a soldier and a poet
Come on
Even with my eyes sewn shut"
You're tellin' me to see the truth

But I'm a dancer at best
Even with my eyes sewn shut"
Curtain as a dress

You're tellin' me to tell the truth
I'm burnin' houses baby
On the right bank and the left
And at the end I see a light"
You're tellin' me to see the truth
I see a tulip on the grave

Even with my mouth sewn up
I said, "Come on, come on
I drove a tank in on the left
And she smiles when she wears the iron

When she said, "I see a tunnel
Of a lover who confessed
You're tellin' me to tell the truth
I'm burnin' bridges baby
Even with my mouth sewn up
You're tellin' me to tell the truth

And at the end I see a light"
I'm burnin' houses baby
I'm burnin' bridges baby

Even with my eyes sewn shut"
Yes, baby yes
I see the smoke and fire
I see fire on the water
I said, "Come on, come on
